Buzz

@Natz and I watched ToyStory I and II on DVD last night and it brought back nostalgic memories. It was fun piecing together which stuff transitioned over from I and II to III and which ones disappeared. It also had a game in it which was really a personality test to tell you which Toy Story character you were. Lalee was a Woody, loyal and dependable. I was a Buzz Lightyear. Go Figure.

You've got a friend in me.

Work.

A lot of sacrifices had to be made. The transition took some adjusting and I'm still in the process because I keep thinking about friends I've made from my previous work. The work is not as hard but there are days when it can get toxic. The best way to go about it is just to be above it all. Just keep thinking that sacrifices have its benefits. If you want something, you've got to work for it. The rewards are great but just can't help and think back sometimes. Sentimental idiot.

Toy Story 3

Warning: May contain spoilers. Watch the movie first.

When Toy Story (TS) 1 came out, me and my siblings watched it around 6 times. It was that good. First CGI feature-length animation. The story wasn't too bad either. It's your classic tale of the old,faithful and loyal vs. the snazzy,more versatile character. In the end they both came out on top. Woody and Buzz both have very different characters and yet they still manage to be the best of friends. Woody is your loyal guy that will do anything for the sake of friendship. Buzz on the other hand is very objective in everything that he does so much so that everything is a mission for him. The whole ensemble is a contradiction of sorts as Rex is your timid dinosaur, and Mr Potato Head is your all-time-sour-puss. In toy story 3, Barbie is your empowered blonde American Woman. Just like Shrek, TS breaks stereotypes in such a way that you'll laugh about it. Ken was right on the money though. I'd imagine no less of how he was portrayed. Winner part: Mr Glow worm catching Barbie wearing heels and still thinking it's Ken. Tawa lang ako ng tawa. Twas a good break from work. Would like to watch it again 5 more times.
